    So I want to train a plant to cover a wall about 8 feet high and 12 feet wide, it's on a stone area so I'd have to plant it in a pot or some other type container.
    It's a spot out side double doors so something nice to look at would be good.
    It's a very warm sunny area in summer.
    Any ideas?

    Confederate jasmine ( trachelospermum jasminoides)
    Evergreen, fast growing, once established, white flowers, beautiful scent. You will need to plant any climber you decide on in a deep container as they need plenty of root room. Cover the wall in trellis or stiff plastic netting, mounted on battens, so the plant can twine around.

    Yeah I'm wondering how big a pot I'd need, the wall is about 10 foot wide and 8 feet high.
    Also wondering what say non plant pot but fit for purpose things I could use.
    Like could I get old pc monitors and use them as hanging baskets?
